I haven't tested this, but it sounds as if the selection is being set AFTER
the menuPick event.

Try checking the parameter passed to menuPick - that will give you the name
of the selected menuItem and you could use lineOffset to find the line
number.

Alternatively, try reading the menuHistory. I have only used this for
setting a popup, but it deals with line numbers rather than text.

Cheers,
Sarah
